Taking us all back in time; where true 🐎 power (hp) began! Thank you for the education, very interesting to watch. Love you're backhoe grapple combo,,,,,,😎.
Well here I sit in a John Deere tractor with a cab and heat and just got done feeding roll bales of hay to the cattle , next up is to feed the horses and I wish I was this young man more in contact with the old ways ! So you want to be a vaquero , this young man is the definition of vaquero ! Much respect and stay safe !
This video brings back such great memories. I was blessed to be raised on a farm & grew up on the backs of many wonderful horses. My dad was a great horseman and himself had been raised using horses & mules for farming. In the 80s, he gave up row cropping and raised Belgian Draft horses and mules. My son spent each summer on the farm working with my dad learning these same ways; using the horses to garden and help break new teams. My dad's stock had great bloodlines and his teams were sold in several states as well as Canada and South America. My parents are both gone now and my son owns their farm. He has a pair of Drafts (the size of riding horses but built much stockier), he built his own wagon and takes them on trail with a group of riders. I'm so happy to see him carrying on the tradition.
A beautiful blue sky, pink clouds surrounding your everyday work ... how could anyone want to work in a cube farm after watching this video! Thank you for sharing your brother's calling.
Very well done. It brings back memories growing up on a cattle ranch in North East New Mexico. When Winter was in full swing with snow covered pastures. we also used a team to pull a sled in which we fed hay to the cattle. We used more of the pitch forks. It was such a great tool to see your brother operate the hay claw directing pickup and delivery of hugh amounts of hay. The cattle and livestock need to be fed, water made available when ice covers it. We ran wood fed stoves and fire places to heat and cook our meals.
Wow, what a supercool video. Your brother is one rugged dude. We city slickers have no real idea about what went into the burger, stew or steak we are about to tuck into. Thank you and most especially your brother for the hard work he puts in every day, so we can eat. May God Bless him, keep him safe. May he prosper and remain in good health in 2023 and thereafter.
Thank you from the land of Oz, Australia, where our draught horses have become show horses, and certainly never lived out in any snow. I love this video, the only thing this work consumes is time! So much nicer than tractors.
I saw your earlier one some time ago. Went back to have a look, and found it a little different. I love it. Horses re-generate themselves, breed. Grass grows to become hay. I love the fences which break the wind for the horses. Hang on! As this video plays again I'm getting some of the older one. However, I'm not impressed so much with the dog, he needs to come off when he's called off, and give the kid her hat! I do know my working dogs. Love the sled and the gear on it, the hay grabber. Here its all baled, small top quality bales for horses, round bales for weedy stuff or anything ruined by weather, and the oaten, if there's any left to bale. So much high energy here compared with your way. I am a caretaker tenant (I'm a 71 yo horsewoman) they grow irrigated lucerne (alfalfa) and winter oats. Raising vealer calves using half-dairy cows and Limousin bulls. Very impressive calves. Can't wait to see where your brother is now.
Joe this is very interesting and educational. I would love to see more in the spring and summer, perhaps calving and cutting hay. Nicely done an excellent home movie for the family. God's Blessings.
SAW I haven’t been back to that particular ranch as my brother moved on the year after I made this. But my film “Interview With A Buckaroo” does feature him on a ranch in Nevada, and if you’re interested in more of my agricultural work, I did a short film called “Harvest” with our local dry edible bean growers, which is also on my channel!
Your brother is right, claw machines are rigged. Always drop likes when something makes me smile. Great glimpse into a world most of us will never know. Thanks for sharing!
Tis is my first time here on this subjet. Hoping to see more like, haying stuff like that, I wonder if on westerner ranches, there's also chores like ploughing, seedling, etc, etc as we have in north-east Canada where I live. Two way of connection to the land. If so, I'd wish we see more.
Joe, I could watch more of this stuff for hours; and, your narration/voice are tremendous, my friend. You tell a great story and your brother gives a very true/realistic portrayal of "the life." Will you be doing more work with your brother and the work of the ranch? I certainly hope so! God Bless you and all the cowboys on the ranch. Y'all Be Safe!
Raymond Schneider thank you very much, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! As of right now my brother is on a ranch in Idaho, which make it a little more of a challenge for me to get out there to work with him, but I’d definitely love for that to happen sometime!
Ein wunderschönes Video über die Arbeit deines Bruders. Du solltest wirklich mehr Videos davon machen! Oder dein Bruder macht seine eigenen Videos? Er sollte sich " Rurial Heritage" und " Working Horses with Jim" anschauen. So ähnlich könnte er seine Videos machen. Es würde sicherlich vielen gefallen. Er hat eine sympatische Art und arbeitet gut mit Pferden! Alles Gute für deinen Bruder und dich!
if you dont mind me asking...what would you earn in a year working a place like this? it looks like you need to be pretty hard and i would assume a decent wage would be needed to keep the right people from leaving. cheers...by the way...awsome horses and teamwork
shane jeffery hey Shane! Thanks for commenting! You know, I’m not entirely sure. It’s been my observation that there’s an element of this kind of work being a calling. Certainly there are many jobs that would be easier and pay more. I can’t speak for everyone but I know my brother and others like him feel a pull to the traditions, the animals, and the preservation of the cowboy way of life. Some hands do stick to a ranch for long stretches of time, but others move around quite a bit for various reasons. Over the years my brother’s worked on multiple Colorado ranches as well as outfits in Wyoming, Nebraska, Nevada, and currently Idaho.
@@thejoepatterson thanks for the reply.I guess its something you either love or hate...some of us dont mind a bit of hard slog.We get the harsh winters here in new zealand too and i have an outdoors job so i can relate to that...although i would trade my digger and trucks for a team of draught horses any day...We have a few horses my partner and I...one of which is a clydesdale but hes a bit of a hacker...he wouldnt last a day with your brothers team lol way too soft All the best ...Shane
Oh wow, New Zealand! That’s awesome! Yeah, I can definitely identify with that sentiment, sometimes we put up with the less appealing aspects of something because we prefer that difficulty to someone else’s. I’d rather be outside working with my hands than just punch a clock at an office every day. That may be some people’s jam but it’s certainly not mine.
Stuck In NY thank you! It is indeed, when I work with my brother I always ask him if there is any music he’d like included, and that was his pick at the time!
In this day and age they are often the ones get sent to the meat market. And back in the day, the spooky draft horses were at minimum not allowed to pass on their genes but they were probably killed and eaten as well because..its one thing to have a small to regular sized horse that spooks at his shadow while it is an entirely different thing to have a draft horse that is out of control. If you can't use it for work, and it poses a danger to you, your property, and your other livestock. Why keep feeding it? I have a strong feeling that this is why large horse breeds are generally more mellow while you have more hotness in smaller breeds like arabians, hackenys etc. Of course arabians are also physiologically built to have more energy as well, and while it is probsbly rare, I have known one Arab..in fact he was also a stallion, who was mellow and if us kids wanted to go out and play with the horses on my aunt's property, the only one who's area we were allowed in unattended was his. I think there is a lot of irresponsible horse breeding and that a lot of bad genes are tolerated in the name of beauty. The fact is, if people bred for temperament first, we'd have a lot less abused horses and a lot fewer in slaughterhouses.
To keep the sled runners from freezing to the ground, find a place to either park it or run through. Pour oil in two narrow strips (any kind you want to use: vegetable or petroleum) on the ground (or in some kind of a shallow trough) and pass thru each time before you park the sled for the night. Make sure it doesn't get on the horse's path. Just a suggestion.
Du kannst auch mit den vorderen Kufen auf einen Holzbalken fahren. Dann hängend die Kufen etwas in der Luft. Sie frieren dann nicht komplett fest. Die Pferde haben es dann leichter, den Schlitten anzuziehen. Das habe ich bei "Working Horses with Jim" gesehen.

Hey Gerry! I saw your comments and just wanted to clarify a few things. By the time the horses were turned out it was much warmer, the temp fluctuates a lot that time of year.

Lovely! Not only satisfying, but also ecologically sound! And therefore in the long run also economically efficient!
Klaus Karbaumer ...Yeah, the hay regenerates itself, horses multiply naturally, all it takes is men to keep it going.
Great film. I love the way the horses are so relaxed. They look like they like what they do. They are obviously happy with their job.
Thank you! It was an amazing experience watching them work.

Film made in 2016 but still most of the gear and harnesses is leather. Interesting.
Biothane been used for 30+ years.
Boy, wish I could have understood what was being said... too much wind noise and he spoke so Quietly
So they use equipment to farm but move it with the horses.
I love draft horses but from a purely economic perspective they are the most expensive hp you’ll have on a ranch..
the old ways never had hydraulic claws run by gas engines they had hay forks powered by human hands.
they didnt have so many critics either
Put a sock over your mike to get rid of that annoying wind noise.
